The Kawasaki Ninja 400 is a 399 cc Ninja series sport bike introduced by Kawasaki in 2018, as a successor to the Ninja 300. It launched with the 2018 model year.

The Ninja 300 was struggling through Euro 4 emission standards compliance. Therefore, Kawasaki decided to replace it with the Ninja 400 for the 2018 model year. It also has significant upgrades in engine, frame, suspension, and other parts. The Kawasaki Ninja 400 has 6 gears and goes 120 miles per hour (193KMH) in ideal conditions.
